In 1831, he joined an expedition to South America aboard the HMS Beagle as the ship's scientist. During the voyage, Darwin collected specimens of rocks, plants, animals, and fossils from places like Argentina, Tierra del Fuego, Chile, and the Galapagos Islands. After returning home in 1836, Darwin spent twenty years thinking about and writing down his observations and developing his theory of evolution by natural selection, which he published in his famous book "On the Origin of Species" in 1859. His ideas revolutionized scientific thought.
